That's true. But it's still sad, not being able to see them every day.

But you DO see them every day, it may not be a physical aspect but mentally you see the person as you remembered them and that is an accolade to them, not to remember them would be a sadness.
I have only surviving siblings now all other close relatives are dead but I still remember them with fondness not sadness.

How old are you
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........
Yes, quite regular deaths are on mine, but then it is rural with an aging population, and each ones goes to remind me I'm one place further up the queue.

You know as well as I do DGP1 how many times I have "died" on the job - even the tablets don't work anymore
